The boring answer is going to be an Xbox controller – as that’s what most PC games and Steam have mappings for. I assume those play nice with Linux?

How much weight am I planning on gaining?

My wardrobe is pretty minimal, but it’s mostly duplicates. So I feel like with my crappy hand backstitch abilities I can mend and patchwork things together for a while.

For whatever reason I wear two pairs of socks layered, and the outer wool ones do get holes that I probably can’t fix. So those socks would potentially be my limitation.

TLDR: I think I’m good until death - might only be wearing sandals in retirement.

I broke the patience protocol and grabbed Pantheon in early access. $40 in leu of ~2 years of monthly subs seemed like a bargain.

Am also curious how things go for Valve’s game.
